Expedited Permit Process for PV Systems - Micro-Inverter1
Expedited Permit Process for PV Systems
Micro-Inverter
The Solar America Board for Codes and Standards (Solar ABCs) Expedited Permit Pro-
cess provides a means to differentiate systems that can be permitted quickly and easily
due to their similarity with the majority of small-scale PV systems. Those systems with
unique characteristics may be handled with small additions to this Expedited Permit
Process or may require much more information, depending on the uniqueness of the
installation.
The following pages contain forms for the Micro-Inverter to use with the Expedited Per-
mit Process. The Standard String, AC Module, and Supply-Side Connection forms
are also available as interactive PDF files at www.solarabcs.org/permitting. In jurisdic-
tions that have adopted the Expedited Permit Process for PV Systems, these forms can
be filled out electronically and submitted in either printed form and via email. An elec-
tronic format is used so that the supplied information is standardized and legible for the
local jurisdiction.

Expedited Permit Process for PV Systems — Micro-Inverter2
Expedited Permit Process for Small-Scale PV Systems
Micro-Inverter
The information in this guideline is intended to help local jurisdictions and contractors identify when PV system installations
are simple, needing only a basic review, and when an installation is more complex. It is likely that 50%-75% of all residential
systems will comply with these simple criteria. For projects that fail to meet the simple criteria, resolution steps have been
suggested to provide as a path to permit approval.
Required Information for Permit:
1. Site plan showing location of major components on the property. This drawing need not be exactly to scale, but it
should represent relative location of components at site (see supplied example site plan). PV arrays on dwellings
with a 3’ perimeter space at ridge and sides may not need separate fire service review.
2. Electrical diagram showing PV array configuration, wiring system, overcurrent protection, inverter, disconnects,
required signs, and ac connection to building (see supplied standard electrical diagram).
3. Specification sheets and installation manuals (if available) for all manufactured components including, but not
limited to, PV modules, inverter(s), combiner box, disconnects, and mounting system.
Step 1: Structural Review of PV Array Mounting System
Is the array to be mounted on a defined, permitted roof structure? l Yes l No
If No due to non-compliant roof or a ground mount, submit completed worksheet for the structure WKS1.
Roof Information:
1. Is the roofing type lightweight (Yes = composition, lightweight masonry, metal, etc…)__________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
If No, submit completed worksheet for roof structure WKS1 (No = heavy masonry, slate, etc…).
2. Does the roof have a single roof covering? l Yes l No
If No, submit completed worksheet for roof structure WKS1.
3. Provide method and type of weatherproofing roof penetrations (e.g. flashing, caulk).____________________________
Mounting System Information:
1. Is the mounting structure an engineered product designed to mount PV modules with no more than an 18” gap
beneath the module frames? l Yes l No
If No, provide details of structural attachment certified by a design professional.
2. For manufactured mounting systems, fill out information on the mounting system below:
a. Mounting System Manufacturer ___________Product Name and Model#________________________________
b. Total Weight of PV Modules and Rails ___________lbs
c. Total Number of Attachment Points____________
d. Weight per Attachment Point (b÷c)_________________lbs (if greater than 45 lbs, see WKS1)
e. Maximum Spacing Between Attachment Points on a Rail ______________inches (see product manual for
maximum spacing allowed based on maximum design wind speed)
f. Total Surface Area of PV Modules (square feet)_________________ ft 2
g. Distributed Weight of PV Module on Roof (b÷f)_______________ lbs/ft2
If distributed weight of the PV system is greater than 5 lbs/ft2, see WKS1.
Step 2: Electrical Review of PV System (Calculations for Electrical Diagram)
In order for a PV system to be considered for an expedited permit process, the following must apply:
1. PV modules, utility-interactive inverters, and combiner boxes are identified for use in PV systems.
2. The PV array is composed of 4 series strings or less per inverter.
3. The total inverter capacity has a continuous ac power output 13,440 Watts or less
4. The ac interconnection point is on the load side of service disconnecting means (690.64(B)).
5. One of the standard electrical diagrams (E1.1, E1.1a, E1.1b, or E1.1c) can be used to accurately represent the PV
system. Interactive PDF diagrams are available at www.solarabcs.org/permitting.
Fill out the standard electrical diagram completely. A guide to the electrical diagram is provided to help the applicant
understand each blank to fill in. If the electrical system is more complex than the standard electrical diagram can effectively
communicate, provide an alternative diagram with appropriate detail.

To Whom It May Concern:
We have received information regarding solar panel installation on the roof of the above referenced
structure. Our evaluation of the structure is to verify the existing capacity of the roof system and its ability
to support the additional loads imposed by the proposed solar system .
A. Site Assessment Information
1. Site visit documentation identifying attic information including size and spacing of framing
for the existing roof structure.
2. Design drawings of the proposed system including a site plan, roof plan and connection
details for the solar panels. This information will be utilized for approval and construction
of the proposed system.
B. Description of Structure:
Roof Framing: Prefabricated wood trusses at 24” on center. All truss members are
constructed of 2x4 dimensional lumber.
Roof Material: Tile Roofing
Roof Slope: 23 degrees
Attic Access: Accessible
Foundation: Permanent
C. Loading Criteria Used
• Dead Load
o Existing Roofing and framing = 14 psf
o New Solar Panels and Racking = 3 psf
o TOTAL = 17 PSF
• Dead Load
o Existing Roofing and framing = 7 psf
o New Solar Panels and Racking = 3 psf
o TOTAL = 10 psf
• Live Load = 20 psf (reducible) – 0 psf at locations of solar panels
• Ground Snow Load = 0 psf
• Wind Load based on ASCE 7-16
o Ultimate Wind Speed = 95 mph (based on Risk Category II)
o Exposure Category C
Analysis performed of the existing roof structure utilizing the above loading criteria is in accordance
with the 2019 California Building Code, including provisions allowing existing structures to not
require strengthening if the new loads do not exceed existing design loads by 105% for gravity
elements and 110% for seismic elements. This analysis indicates that the existing framing will
support the additional panel loading without damage, if installed correctly.

D. Solar Panel Anchorage
1. The solar panels shall be mounted in accordance with the most recent Ecofasten installation
m anual. If during solar panel installation, the roof framing members appear unstable or deflect non-
uniformly, our office should be notified before proceeding with the installation.
2. The m aximum allowable withdrawal force for a 5/16” lag screw is 235 lbs per inch of penetration as
identified in the National Design Standards (NDS) of timber construction specifications. Based on
a minimum penetration depth of 2½”, the allowable capacity per connection is greater than the
design withdrawal force (demand). Considering the variable factors for the existing roof framing
and installation tolerances, the connection using one 5/16” diameter lag screw with a minimum of
2½” embedment will be adequate and will include a sufficient factor of safety.
3. Considering the wind speed, roof slopes, size and spacing of framing members, and condition of
the roof, the panel supports shall be placed no greater than 48” on centers.
4. Panel supports connections shall be staggered to distribute load to adjacent framing members.
Based on the above evaluation, this office certifies that with the racking and mounting specified, the existing
roof system will adequately support the additional loading imposed by the solar system. This evaluation is in
conformance with the 2019 California Building Code, current industry standards, and is based on information
supplied to us at the time of this report.
